The upper end of the stem 9 may be screw-threaded at- 12, for connection with a handle 14. Said handle is shown octagonal in the present instance, but obviously any other suitable form may be employed. Said handle lil is provided With a pair oi passages 1G extending` longitudinally through the same, Which act as guides for the handle Which operates the hammer-head.

The hammer comprises a head 20, to Which a pair ot rods 21 are secured, said rods passing through the passages 16 in the handle le., and are Jfastened in their upper ends in the handle 9A.
